doesn't matter what kind of game !
the AUTHOR and PRODUCER matters !

example:
TOMB RAIDER = pretty damn true to the series... (except some story leaks, example, the father's death)
MORTAL KOMBAT = pretty damn true to the series... (again, story leaks here and there)

can't really remember others that were good... just can't remember a lot !
every other games that i saw...

WINGS COMMANDER
DOUBLE DRAGON
STREET FIGHTER
MORTAL KOMBAT 2 : THE ANNIHILATION
FINAL FANTASY : THE SPIRIT WITHIN

and some others... the author just didn't have the same vision as the author who made the game !
see... it all depends on who made the movie... as the author the same vision as the one who created the game ?

example... AKIRA TORIYAMA is helping in making his ANIME DBZ into a REAL ACTION MOVIE ! so yeah, it can be real good... plus, its 20th century fox who produce it... so big budjets !

really, it all depends on all those critters !

EDIT:
forgot to mention... DRIVER has also been bought by some company to make the LIVE ACTION MOVIE !
